Nevada psychiatric hospital accused of ‘patient dumping’

http://video.foxnews.com/v/233306315...tient-dumping/

I don't see what the big deal is...So they implemented Obamacare a little early, so what?
Evidently they've been dumping the crazy Austin people here in the National Sandbox before Obamacare went full force.

Well this must be the beginning the Ozombie wars that we keep hearing about. Just imagine thousands of mentally ill people roaming around manifesting their symptoms and no medical help in sight, and gun control on top of it. What a crock of shit.

Yes I did and so should you, for Chao and the HHS have not been successful and cannot get cooperation from the states and insurance companies to underwrite any "Bronze Plan" policy yet or even an exchange in one single state. They are still trying to decide on a font and the size for their website :/ Without knowing what the underwriter is going to pay for and how much for each procedure, it is impossible to determine.

I can tell you the hospitalist and clinicians I am associated with in six different states have not and will not receive any such raise. They are already on a fifteen minute per patient schedule eight hours a day and they are not interested in seeing any more patients, they are interested in seeing wealthy people or insurance carriers that pay the most per visit and procedure.

The only doctors that will benefit from the influx of new patients are the ones currently with unsuccessful practices or the new doctors that cannot get a job with a successful clinic or want to start their own and are willing to see these patients with bad insurance policies or government programs. Obamacare did not remove capitalism from healthcare, until they do, this is what the poor will have to deal with.

sounds like youre opposed to new Dr's or less successful Dr's making a living IMO.

I'll venture a guess, if you ask someone who is "poor" if they had a choice between having a new doctor treat them for cancer or have no ins and no Dr, they would gladly see a new Dr
